I graduated from Pretoria University in 1999 and have been working as a general dentist in the UK for over 25 years. I practice biomimetic dentistry, taking a conservative approach to restoring teeth.
I have a special interest in early interceptive orthodontics for children, working with both fixed and removable appliances, as well as my functional appliances like Myobrace. This includes exercises to improve nasal breathing, tongue posture, and muscle function, supporting healthy facial development and helping to prevent or correct bite issues early on.
I’m also trained in managing jaw joint (TMJ) conditions, assisting patients with sleep-related breathing problems, and providing orthodontic care for adults.
I live in Wiltshire with my family and enjoy walking, swimming, gardening, painting, cycling, and exploring the countryside.
